Money is probably the most important thing in life. People stress about it all the time no matter what age they are. This is how you can say money can’t buy happiness. Yeah you can have a lot of money and buy a lot of material things, but if you get all this money and don’t enjoy it like spend time with your family then it’s not happiness. Personally I find joy and happiness in spending time with my family and friends. You may think that you need money to do things, but there are plenty of things you can do that do not cost money. For instance I would rather go to my friend’s house for a bonfire rather than go to the mall and shop. In high school I feel that you can have a job if you need it. To have a job to pay off a car you have just because you have a job is a stupid reason to have a job. To have a job to start saving money for college or to pay for sports and things is a much more logic reason. Right now I want enough money for my family’s college tuitions and my travel fees to come back home be paid off. With this money my mom can focus more on getting through school than getting me and my three sisters through school. I would be happy for a very long time because most student loans take twenty years to pay off and that is a huge chunk of money I will not need to worry about.
I love this post. I don't know the point in time where people thought having fun entailed spending money, but you're right. The idea of relaxing on a cold, fall night around a campfire with friends is one of my favorite past times. Great post.
